Hi PDAL, It's been a while since you've graced our pages and honored us with your esteemed presence. :-) If you read in Isaiah 14:12-18 you can see it tells the story of Lucifer's fall from heaven. Compare this to, Luke 10:18, where Jesus says: "I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven.” reading on in Isaiah 14 we see that this is describing the one who's foolish pride is shown to be at work here, who is none other then Satan (the devil) and in v13-14 we see the reason for him getting the boot. “You said in your heart, "I will ascend to heaven; I will raise my throne above the stars of God; I will sit enthroned on the mount of assembly, on the utmost heights of the sacred mountain. I will ascend above the tops of the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High." Comparing this to Genesis 3:5 where he, Satan, uses this same temptation on Eve that he aspired to as well, “You shall be as God" also in Ezekiel 28:12-18 v12 “take up a lament concerning the king of Tyre” and v13 says the King was “in Eden, the garden of God.” Scripture does not show the king of Tyre in the Garden of Eden, so it must be referring to Satan (the devil) in v14 we see him described as a cherub "You were the anointed cherub who covers, and I placed you there. You were on the holy mountain of God; You walked in the midst of the stones of fire." The King of Tyre is not found anywhere else in Scripture to be in Heaven either so It is quite clear this is describing Satan, Lucifer, or as so often called, the devil. John |

2 | Is Isaiah 14 talking about Satan? | Gen 1:5 | confused??? | 219746 | ||
Hello, I know this is an old thread, but has anyone considered that Isaiah 14 isn't talking about Satan? Chapter 13 starts out saying that it is an oracle concerning Babylon and this continues on straight through chapter 14. In 14:4, the Lord speaks of how they will taunt the king of Babylon. Verse 10 still seems to be speaking of the king of Babylon as does verse 11. Why is it believed that verse 12 abruptly switches to talking about Satan and then somewhere before verse 22 switches back to Babylon again? confused??? |

I can appreciate that you do not want to answer questions you feel already answered. Yes, I can read older posts on the subject. Which I have done. For that matter I can go get a book to read and not bother even asking the question on the forum. The point though is to get more opinions on the matter. The forum allows a discussion format so that the information can be directly related to my questions. I would much prefer a forum member to give me their take as to why it is believed that Isaiah 14 is referring to Satan. If anyone is willing to do so, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you, confused??? |
